- Product Families
- Composition
B680 Enviro Blend is a parasynthetic industrial gear lubricant formulated with biodegradable and non-toxic components. B680 is a carefully balanced blend of vegetable and synthetic ester base stocks, viscosity modifiers, tackifiers, and most importantly, vegetable-derived and completely non-toxic performance additives. These additives include:
- Anti-Wear Additives
- Extreme Pressure Additives
- OxidatioInhibitors
- CorrosioInhibitors
- Rust Inhibitors
- Demulsifiers
- Adhesive/Cohesive Additives

Applications & Uses

- Application Area
- Uses
B680 Enviro Blend is responsibly recommended for any industrial gear oil application. It is completely compatible with conventional gear oils and no special cleanouts for changeover to B680 are required. However, any other components mixed with B680 will naturally have a proportional affect on the percentage of biodegradability of the mixture, and any significant contamination with conventional gear oils could possibly affect the claim of non-toxicity for the mixture.
- Applications
B680 Enviro Blend is especially recommended for applications where potential leakage or accidental release of lubricant into soil or waters might occur, or for any application where a non-toxic lubricant is desired for either human or animal safety.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Performance Characteristics
Enviro Blend B680 provides outstanding industrial gear oil performance in an environmentally responsible formulation. B680 provides excellent extreme pressure and load carrying performance. It also meets and exceeds industrial gear oil requirements AGMA 250.04 and US Steel 224 specifications. It has very high oxidation stability for long term use which also allows it to pass the L-60 automotive gear test. B680 prevents both rust and corrosion in salt water and is completely non-corrosive to yellow metals, such as brass, copper, or bronze bushings. B680 has an exceptionally high wear prevention and load carrying capability with outstanding film strength and lubricity. Viscosity index is extremely high, allowing much less viscosity change due to temperature variations.
